STARS
Some stars are fixed, and some they say
Will travel on forever and aye,
Seeking always peace and rest,
Weary never in this sad quest,
Seeking with courage that never fails
The path that leads to fixed stars' trails.
I hope, twinklers, that some time you
Will reach the height of fixed stars, too.
Heaven is crowded with such laws,
Twinkling away for a great cause.

Earth has some of these sparklets, too,
Laboring on for places; but few
That gain those places, and stay there, too.
